This procedure describes how to configure a computer for Cox High Speed Internet service.

The Cox High Speed Internet software CD should configure TCP/IP settings automatically. If your computer required the installation of a Network Interface Card (NIC) and you are having difficulties proceeding with the installation, you may need to configure TCP/IP using DHCP.

If your computer is already part of a network, you must modify the network configuration on your computer to connect to the Cox High Speed Internet, which involves one of the following actions:

• Changing your computer's configuration, disconnecting from the network, and then connecting to the Cox High Speed Internet
• Using another computer which is not connected to the network to connect to the Cox High Speed Internet
• Using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) service to obtain the following items:
  • IP Address
  • Default gateway
  • Domain Name Service (DNS) address
